The two of them went to Chusi's room in the backyard in the middle of the night. Chusi's room was very small, with only a bed, a table and a stool, nothing else.

Lu Suixin looked at all the things around him and said, "He doesn't have much stuff. Do you think there are really people in this world who don't care about money and just want a jar of wine?"

"There's something." Yu Shaoqing felt something hard in the interlayer of the pillow, and immediately tore open the pillow and took out the thing inside. "It's a jade pendant."

Lu Suixin took the jade pendant from Yu Shaoqing and examined it carefully. "This jade pendant looks like something a woman would wear."

"Could it be that Chusi really has a wife?" Yu Shaoqing guessed.

"What are you thinking about?" Lu Sui Xin said, "This jade pendant was probably given to the woman he admired, but he has kept it all along. Just imagine Qiao Chun's reaction. I boldly guess that this jade pendant may be related to Qiao Chun." After saying that, Lu Sui Xin put the jade pendant in his arms.

Seeing this, Yu Shaoqing immediately grabbed Lu Suixin's wrist and stopped her, saying, "What are you doing? This is someone else's stuff."

Lu Suixin reached out and slapped Yu Shaoqing's hand away, and said speechlessly: "What are you thinking about? I won't keep this jade pendant for myself. I need this jade pendant to play a role with me. You will know it tomorrow."

"But now, you have to accompany me to a place." After Lu Sui Xin said this, he took Yu Shaoqing's hand and used his light skills to climb walls and fly over eaves in the dark night.

The whistling wind in his ears made his cheeks hot. Yu Shaoqing took a look at his hand clasped with Lu Suixin's, but in the end he did not pull it away, and let Lu Suixin hold it.

Lu Suixin took Yu Shaoqing to a tombstone and said, "We're here. This is it."

Yu Shaoqing frowned and asked in confusion: "What are you doing here?"

Lu Suixin replied: "Digging graves."

Yu Shaoqing: !!! "What are you doing! Do you know that what you are doing is detrimental to your virtue?"

Lu Sui Xin: "This is Chu Si's grave. If he really died accidentally, why was Qiao Chun so panicked at the time? I guess there must be something strange going on."

There happened to be a shovel nearby, so Lu Sui Xin picked it up and started digging without saying a word.

After just two shovelfuls, Lu Suixin shook his wrist and complained quietly: "It's so sour..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the shovel in his hand was taken away. Yu Shaoqing complained while digging: "At your speed, the sun will come out by the time you finish digging."

"Thank you." Lu Sui Xin held Yu Shaoqing's Chengying sword and stood aside watching Yu Shaoqing digging.

A dark red coffin appeared. Yu Shaoqing opened the lid and found Chusi lying inside.

Lu Suixin jumped into the pit and tidied Chu Si's hair. Chu Si's face was completely exposed to the two people. Lu Suixin looked at it carefully for a while. Yu Shaoqing urged with some displeasure: "What did you see?"

Lu Suixin then looked away and said, "Chu Si is pretty."

Most of Chu Si's face was completely disfigured, but if you look closely, it's not hard to see how graceful and elegant she was when she was young. Yu Shaoqing paused for a moment, then kindly reminded her, "Don't mention irrelevant things."

Lu Suixin approached Yu Shaoqing and teased, "Why, are you jealous?"

Yu Shaoqing was about to retort, but he found that Lu Suixin was carefully examining the corpse, as if what he had just seen was just an illusion.

Lu Suixin unbuttoned Chu Si's clothes and said to Yu Shaoqing, "Look here, there is a palm print."

Yu Shaoqing looked over and the palm print looked very faint. Lu Suixin raised the hand that had just been pressed on the palm print, put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it, and said, "It smells like powder."

"Why is there a scent of powder?" As if he had thought of something, Yu Shaoqing stretched out his hand and rubbed the palm print vigorously, "This wound was covered by powder."

Lu Suixin said: "I smelled this smell on Shopkeeper Qiao today. They are indeed connected."

"It's the Soul-Severing Palm." Yu Shaoqing frowned and explained, "It's someone from the Ghost Shadow Sect."

Lu Sui Xin: ...I’ve eaten the melon right at my doorstep.

Lu Suixin cleared his throat and asked casually, "Why are you sure it's from the Ghost Shadow Sect?"

When the Ghost Shadow Sect was mentioned, Yu Shaoqing was filled with indignation: "The Ghost Shadow Sect is a perpetrator of all evil. This Soul-Severing Palm is a move used by the left protector of that evil leader. It is said that the evil leader's face was completely destroyed in order to practice evil skills. He dared not come out to see people, so every time it was his men who took action."

Lu Suixin choked up when she heard this. Although she knew that there were many bad rumors about herself and the Ghost Shadow Sect in the martial arts world, when Yu Shaoqing said this, Lu Suixin's face froze uncomfortably for a moment, and then she asked, "So what do you think of my appearance?"

Lu Suixin was good-looking, the most handsome man Yu Shaoqing had ever seen, but unfortunately he had an unpleasant mouth, and the words he spoke were not human. Facing Lu Suixin's face, Yu Shaoqing really couldn't tell a lie. He looked at the red birthmark at the end of Lu Suixin's eye and replied, "He looks like that..."

"What does that mean? Can you please explain it clearly?" Lu Sui Xin turned his head and met Yu Shaoqing's eyes.

Yu Shaoqing took averted his eyes unexpectedly, turned his head away, and said irritably: "He looks better than the devil."

Lu Sui Xin was not willing to give in and continued, "You said that the demon was so ugly that he dared not show up to see people. So what you mean is that I am also ugly, but just a little better than the demon?"

Seeing that Yu Shaoqing didn't say anything, Lu Suixin looked a little depressed, and some sadness slowly accumulated in his eyes. Yu Shaoqing's heart twitched. Usually Lu Suixin looked careless, but at this moment, he felt that Lu Suixin was very fragile. Thinking that it was because of what he said, Yu Shaoqing said awkwardly: "You are good-looking."

"Really?" Lu Sui Xin's eyes immediately lit up and asked.

Seeing that he was fooled by Lu Suixin, Yu Shaoqing did not intend to continue the topic, but said indifferently: "Are you still going to investigate the case?"

"Check!" Lu Sui Xin said with a grin.

Yu Shaoqing went on to analyze, "There must be something wrong with Qiao Chun. She may know the truth, otherwise why would she cover up the real cause of Chu Si's death. But whether Qiao Chun knew that this was the Soul-Breaking Palm and that it was related to the Demon Cult is unknown. Perhaps we can learn about Chu Si's true identity from Qiao Chun and make inferences."

"We really are in sync with each other." Lu Sui Xin blinked at Yu Shaoqing and said.

Yu Shaoqing restored everything and looked at the graves which were no different from when he first arrived. He said, "Perhaps what you mean is that gentlemen think alike."

Lu Suixin shook his head and said, "No."

Yu Shaoqing didn't understand why, so he saw Lu Suixin explain: "I'm not a gentleman, I want to be a villain and get a beautiful man."

Seeing that he was being teased by Lu Sui Xin again, Yu Shaoqing snatched the Chengying Sword, ignored Lu Sui Xin, and left here using his Qinggong skills.

In the woods at night, the sounds of many wild animals could be heard from time to time. Seeing that Yu Shaoqing had left him behind, Lu Suixin quickly used his Qinggong to catch up with him, and then used the same trick again, covering his chest and saying, "Yu Lang, I'm so scared. You actually left me here alone. You are such a cruel person."

"Lu Sui!" Yu Shaoqing said with a cold look in his eyes: "Don't talk nonsense!"

Lu Suixin sighed and said, "Yu Shaoqing, you are so cruel. I have been following you shamelessly, but why are you so stubborn?"

Yu Shaoqing stood on the roof of the restaurant, looking into the distance, his eyes seemed to carry many things, "Lu Sui, the world is not peaceful yet, how can we talk about love."

"Then what do you think is peace?" Lu Sui Xin asked, standing side by side with Yu Shao Qing.

Yu Shaoqing paused for a moment and replied, "Bring the demon cult to justice, and only then will the world be at peace."

Lu Suixin: ...Just pretend I didn't ask...

......

The next day, Lu Sui Xin was planning to pretend to meet Qiao Chun by chance during the break, but she never expected that the accountant said that the shopkeeper was not feeling well today and had to rest in bed.

Lu Suixin and Yu Shaoqing looked at each other, and Yu Shaoqing asked, "Excuse me, where does Shopkeeper Qiao live?"

"What do you want from the shopkeeper?" The accountant stopped working on his abacus, his eyes full of caution.

Lu Sui Xin smiled and said, "It's like this. We feel that we have a connection with Shopkeeper Qiao. We are leaving today. We don't know when we will meet again after this separation. We wanted to meet Shopkeeper Qiao to say hello before we leave."

After hearing this, the accountant said, "The shopkeeper's yard is behind the restaurant."

"Thank you!" After Lu Sui Xin said that, he pulled Yu Shaoqing away from Zuichunlou.
